Play Now - Course has been sold!

Good basic golf. Course has been sold to Pulte (deal finalized 7/19) for a housing development. I expect conditions may decline as the season progresses.

Tough course for seniors

Played this course for the first time. Some water on nearly every hole but no tough carries from tee boxes. Short hitters will need to lay up on a few holes. Greens & fairways in nice shape. Course playability would really be enhanced if they put in a "White" tee box. Gold's are too long to score for most golfers and Silver tees are too short.

Poor Man's Version of "The Orchards"

Played here for the 1st time and enjoyed the course. Reminds me of "The Orchards" In Macomb County with fewer trees. Greens & fairways were in nice shape.

Enjoyed this Course

Played the course for the first time. Nice design and fairways/greens/bunkers were well maintained. If you hit it straight and long - good course for scoring.

Short Hitters - Play from the Whites!

Played the course for the 1st time. I elected to play the blue tees - a mistake for this Senior golfer. 6 holes have significant carries (170+) over wetlands. Course was in great shape. The only criticism I have is that the 67 billion mosquitos living in the wetlands were a major distractor!

Potential to be a great course

While the course is near me, I had never played it before because I find most of the County courses to be a little boring. I was pleasantly surprised - fairways/greens/bunkers were in great shape and course design was interesting. Only 2 things to criticize:
1. When I arrived, the course did not recognize I had made a Golfnow reservation (their website connection was down when the reservation was made so Golfnow had called the course). Glad I brought a printed copy of my receipt. Still took 15 minutes to sort it all out with the gal behind the counter and the starter.
2. Fairways were cut awfully narrow - probably cost me 5 strokes when, what seemed to be good drives, were in the rough. Fortunately grounds crews had the rough at a reasonable length.

Tough track from the Whites!

Played this course for the 1st time this week. 6600+ yards from the White's was tough for this senior golfer! Next tee up was 5500. Narrow fairways and plenty of water/sand/trees. Would have enjoyed it more from tees around 6000 yards!
